When October 20th gets here I will be the happiest person on the planet!!! I've had so much baby shower drama. I had no idea such an event could be so stressful! I probably wouldnt be so stressed if I wasnt such a huge control freak lol I hate surprises so I literally have been involved in every aspect of my shower.......wanting everything MY WAY
The first issue was the date. I dont know why I'm obsessed with October 20th but I am. The coordinator wanted a date in November which I thought was just too far. On October 20th I will be 34 weeks which in itself is far along. Can you imagine November? Because I'm spoiled I got my way :)
The next issue was the location. We finally settled on the Wellington Community Center. However after meeting with the manager we were told that we could only have 50 people in the room. 50 people? 50 family and friends? So what am I suppose to tell my other family/friends...ummm
I was not happy about this but what could a sister do.....I had to cut the list down :/ So finally we get the list cut down and that brought out the next issue....THE THEME!
Several themes were thrown out from Queen of the Jungle to Princess. I agreed to the princess theme because that's exactly what Paige is to me .... MY LITTLE PRINCESS *smile* However half way through planning the shower I changed my mind. Hey I'm a woman..sue me. Paige's room has a princess theme and I just did not want princess princess princess shoved down my throat. So I changed the theme to "Sugar & Spice......and everything NICE" At first this confused the coordinator but after googling the theme she came along and loved the idea. No more problems right?
WRONG! So as soon as I am preparing to drop off the payment to the Wellington Community Center I am hit with the news that the room is $750.
This was truly some fracker-nacker-BULL-crap! What we were originally quoted and what ended up being the final price were two verrrryyyy different prices. 750? Who do we look like to you? So that brought upon extra stress because now we have to find another location. I found one but the coordinator
So finally I found a location. I went to the location and spoke with the manager with an open mind and crossed fingers. Everything seemed pretty good....pretty good room, pretty good location, pretty good price. And most importantly me and the coordinator agreed! Yay! So now we are just waiting for the final approval. I cant wait. On October 20th I'm definitely going to kick my heels up and have a great time no matter what anyone thinks. I deserve it!
